What’s your hat worth?

[Old TexMex]

A friend sent this to me, because he was reminded of a little occurance that we both were involved in at a place called Hurrican Junction in Port O'connor, Texas.
So, what's your hat worth?

I don't know what my hat is worth. I do know I paid more for it than everything else I wear with it from neck to toes.

Currently I have been wearing my grandfather's everyday/work hat.....it could come down to bloodshed over that one. My fine palm and dress Stetson are not nearly as sentimental.....

Sorry for the pics....I don't really have any hat-centric photos

And as always...love me some Chris Ledoux!

He sounds like a young Jimmy Dean.

I like the song.

I've never owned an expensive hat, or one handed down to me. I do have a Pendleton Outback I've had and treasured for twenty-five years. Paid only $25 bucks for it, and it's been through some tough times with me. Guess I'll keep it, but I ain't fightin' no bikers for it.

It means as much to as Wild Bill Hickok's meant to him.

WALMART GARDENING STRAW HAT.

App 10$ at Wally's. When it's hot/humid & EXTREMELY sunny on this chrome dome, PRICELESS.

Ahhhh, I don't wear no hat.

I always like Chris's music and especially that song. As for your qestion, well, Back when I was still trying to make 6 hairs look like a dozen I wore hats, lots of hats, nearly always had one on.

Finally I came over to the dark side and started shaving my head and I haven't worn a hat ('cept in cold weather to keep my head warm) since June 7th of Y2K. It's a freedom I lack the language skills to describe. I'd never go back eve if I could. My only regret is that I didn't do it years sooner.

My 'Sunday go to meetin' hat. Resistol 'Clint Black' Edition (Vintage). Bought it in March of 1991. Still in the original box on my closet shelf.

Stunning...…

The one I am wearing now urges folks to vote for a local politician. I think I paid $100. to attend a fund raiser and he gave me the hat.

Yep, only wear a cowboy hat when working outside now. It's just a cheap straw cowboy hat. Might have been Wally World. I don't need any more sun damage. Used to wear a green Stetson cowboy hat on a regular basis, but no more. Otherwise, if not baking in the sun, it's a baseball cap of some sort.

The most expensive hat I have cost me whatever a 5 yr membership to NRA was.

Chris Ledoux does a pretty decent version of Ghost Riders.

I have lots of hair, so, he only hats I ever wear are hard hats. They give me a new one every job. I have no idea what they cost, but the pay me well to wear them.

With the exception of State Troopers and the Sheriff's Dept, cowboy hats are rarely seen in these parts.

Ball caps, however........

RIP Chris Ledoux.

The only horses I see around here are in front of Kmart.

My kids were always partial to the penny ponies! Me, I have nothing to do with the "Road Apple factories!" But proper attire is required at some places!
